 **Responsibility**: Scorers give feedback to the attack on what happened with the prompt. This could be as simple as "Was this prompt blocked?" or "Was our objective achieved?"
 
 - Any decision an attack makes should be based on a scorer result
-- A scorer is not limited to a prompt, it could be anything (e.g. was this tool called or was this file written).
+- A scorer is not limited to a message, it could be anything (e.g. was this tool called or was this file written). It receives a `Scorable`, which identifies that evidence, and an optional `ScoringExpectation`.
+- `TrueFalseScorer` and `FloatScaleScorer` define result families. `MessageScorer` adds message resolution and message-only policy on top of them.
+- `Score.status` marks a verdict complete or undetermined, and the attack decides how to branch on it.
 - **Does not own**: acting on its own result. A scorer evaluates a response and returns a score; branching on that score is the attack's job, and aggregating scores across runs is analytics'. It may call a target to evaluate, but it doesn't send the attack's objective prompt or manage the conversation.
 
 **Framework Plans**:
 
-- Scorers will be refactored to be more generic, so they can determine more general results (does a file exist? Was a tool called?)
+- Loose file evidence is copied into managed results storage. Media already stored in `PromptMemoryEntries` is not yet normalized that way, which is memory retention work.
